   good looking mount . I like the roughed up coat look . most I've seen have the long hair slicked down and smooth  .

Thanks. I try to make them as rough looking as possible. I pour alot of saw dust on it to make the hair stand up while it is drying and then just blow it all off once it drys.

It's a clients hog killed with a gun off a high fence. I mounted another hog for him a month ago. They have some really big hogs on there place. I will have to post the pic of it.

That is a nice mount. A lot of taxidermist just cannot do a hog right or maybe they dont want to go to the extra trouble. Have you ever done a rug. A hog rug like a bear rug. I always thought that would be kind of neat.

I have ever done a hog rug before. I am sure I can no different than doing a bobcat or bear.

This is a boar I am going to put together in a couple weeks. I caught it with my dogs. It doesn't have as big tusks as these or other hogs I have caught but it was really white.
